Page 61: Update The Firmware Image In A Multiload Ii
The process of updating the firmware image in a MultiLoad II occurs in two steps. The first step involves uploading the new firmware image to the MultiLoad II. This step may take a while but it can be done concurrently with normal loading operations. The Second step involves updating the flash memory with the new image and restarting the system. - Page 62 Note: Some firmware updates MAY cause the configuration parameters and possibly the totalizer data to be set back to factory defaults. It is critical to download a fresh copy of the current MultiLoad II configuration before updating the firmware. Totalizers may be reset to zero.
- Page 63 9. After the upgrade the communication parameters should be re-entered to the MultiLoad. 10. Test the communication again via MultiMate and reload the existing configuration.

Page 195: Calibration Using Meter Factor Linearization
Meter factors are determined during flow meter proving tests by comparing the observed volume with the volume that is indicated on the MultiLoad II display. As the MultiLoad II collects pulses from a flow meter, it divides the pulses by the K-Factor to obtain a Raw Gross Volume. Meter factors are used to correct the Raw Gross Volume so that the volume indicated on the MultiLoad II display matches the volume that is observed during flow meter proving. - Page 196 Meter Factors and Meter Factor Flow Rates are the parameter fields that will be entered. These fields are displayed red and are Weights and Measures protected. When entering the values through the MultiLoad II keypad, the Weights and Measures key switch must be activated to change the value.

Page 197: Single Meter Factor
Chapter 5 – Product Flow Control meter factor will be a value that lies somewhere between the Meter Factor #1 Rate and Meter Factor #2 Rate. If the flow rate is higher than the Meter Factor #2 Rate, the meter factor that is applied to the Raw Gross Volume will be interpolated between Meter Factor #2 and Meter Factor #3. -

- Page 513 Chapter 16 – Firmware Revision History Fix: Issue with stopping and then restarting a load when the Deliver Type (Preset Level) was set to something different than the Meter Type (Meter Level) was set to. Example: if Meter Type was set to VOL PULSES but Deliver Type was set to MASS. The MultiLoad could accidently set a load to complete before reaching the target preset amount because the gross volume delivered was equal to or greater than the (preset_amount - final_volume_trip).
- Page 514 Chapter 16 – Firmware Revision History Fix: Issue with FCM Mapping report for SCS I/O Board. The mapping of the ports types were incorrect. 05/11/2017 TF Fix: Additive PID loop logic. If the math for the output went above 24 mA, it would roll over to 0 mA.
- Page 515 Chapter 16 – Firmware Revision History Fix: MultiLoad incorrectly assigned the control valve logic to an FCM analog output when the control valve type was set to NONE, which would throw an erroneous error message if an additive output was assigned to the same analog output. 09/15/2017 TF Added the ability adjust the low flow targets using the blend adjustment logic.

Questions and answers
Greetings, how can multiload ll totalizers be reset?
The resettable totalizers on the Toptech Systems MultiLoad II can be reset using the CLR (Clear) key. Non-resettable totalizers cannot be reset.
